Research on Clementi Woods Park .
The Clementi area is named after Sir Cecil Clementi Smith , Governor of the Straits Settlements and High Commissioner during the period of 1887 to 1893 . He was an accomplished Chinese scholar who spent most of his time at the corner in the East . The development of Clementi town began in 1975 and lasted till 1979 . It was the 8th town to be developed by HDB . Before development , part of Clementi was a swampland .
There are many facilities such as amphitheatre , reflexology footpath , fitness corner , playground , shelters , woodball lawn and viewing tower .

My Aspiration
I was 10 years old then when I started to have an interest in dance and music . Music is my life and dance has been my passion . I listen to music every single day , morning , afternoon and night .
I listen to different types of music in Chinese , Japanese , Korean , Malay and English languages . I love all kinds of genre . I rarely listen to Heavy metal because it makes my head spin like a wheel . To me , Hip Hop is the best because i could dance along with the music . In school , i join the Malay dance group . We will perform at Community Clubs . I will get nervous each time when it's my group's turn to perform .
As days passed , I became more and more professional . I became better and not being scared of crowds . I performed well and audience like my friends , schoolmates and teachers gave my group some good comments . We created our dance by ourselves as no one wanted to guide us . We believed that we could do it by ourselves .
For now , I am interested in playing instruments . If there is an opportunity , I would like to try playing guitars and drums . My brother plays the guitar and he inspires me to try it . It looks like a fun thing to do . For drums , I would also like to try it . If there is a chance , I will try my best to do it . Who knows i might be a musician some day right ? :)

My Personal Recount : A Memorable Experience.
As always , most experiences may be good or bad but the memories of them do stay with us for a long time . An incident happened to me that till today i could still remember every single thing that happened . It was the day when i got lost .
I should be seven or eight years old by then . My elder brother and I had just finished our religious class . We went to our usual bus stop to take a bus home . At that moment , I had a fight with my elder brother and I boarded the bus first .
The usual bus we took was always 143 or 30 . I boarded bus 30 as it came first . Inside the bus , all I could think was when I got home , I'm going to tell my mother about it . As I was deep in thoughts , i looked around me . The bus was supposed to turn left but it turned right . I was not disturbed as i thought it was taking a longer route . A few minutes later , I realised that I was lost . All I could do was burst out loudly into tears .
Finally , the bus stopped at an interchange . All passengers went out of the bus , but i still stood there looking confused . The bus driver then walked up to me and asked what had happened and why i did not alight the bus . I told him that i was lost and I could not find my way home . He took out his phone and asked for my mother's number .After a while , he sent me to the office and asked me to calm down . He said that my mother would be there soon .
My mother brought my elder brother along . She went up to me and hugged me tightly . I knew she was relieved . Still , I received a good scolding from her . She also scolded my brother for being irresponsible not looking or taking good care of me . My brother and I hugged and said sorry to each other . I also apologized to my mother . I had done such an idiotic thing . I was so happy to be back that i cried and hugged my mother .
Although it happened a long time ago , the incident still remains very vividly in my mind . Everytime we sees the bus "30" , my mother would ask , " Remember that incident happened when you were seven years old ? " .
Oh , of course I won't forget that . I had done a stupid thing that day .

I was named Nurul Ain by my parents . For short , people calls me Ain . I was born on the 6th of April 1995 . Since the first birthday , people around me started wishing me Happy Birthday . However , my family celebrate my birthday by having a small party for me . My mum bought me a beautiful and delicious cake . She even bought goodies for my cousins and friends . I remembered each year when it comes to my birthday , i swear i will be the most happiest girl on Earth . My family treated me the best on that day . Since i was 10 years old then , everything seems to be different and alot of changes occured . I remembered a few weeks back before my birthday strikes , my mother was hospitalized and doctor said she suffered cancer sickness which is called leukimia . She undergo several operations . When it came to my 10th birthday , no one bothered to celebrate as all our attention was at my mother . I understand but at the same time i was sad . Till now she suffured that sickness but it is not as critical as before . Last year , she treated me at pizza hut during my 12 years of living . Hopefully , when my birthday strikes this year , i want everybody to celebrate it with me including my firends ! :):):)

BEING A TEENAGER .
1)What are the five things you like about being a teenager ?
Being a teenager , i could have my own freedom . But sometimes that is not all i want as a teenager .I would love to make my own decision and what i want in life . I don't need others to make me what i don't want to be . Next , being a teenager must have own responsibility . I want to earn my own money from all my hard work . I don't want to rely on my parents anymore and instead , i will be the one who will take good care of them . Buying things that we want from our own earned money is great ! So being a teenager must also be independent . If i have some younger relatives or siblings , i want to be a role model for them . Being a role model for other generations is a good job . If we show them a good example , I am very sure they will be good and success in life :) .
2)What are the five things you dislike most about being a teenager ?
As we go on to the next level , we need to work on with more subjects . Then we will have added on stresses . parents will let us do what we want to do but we have to know what is right . Parents will also let us go and we have to know what and where to go to . Our temper will also get high easily . Once someone asked for a fight , teenagers won't sit back , They will surely fight back . And that's how they created problem . Fighting in school/work . But if we are careful with what me say , what we hear and such , we won't be so stressed up . Also mixed with the right company ! :D

The blogs have colourful backgrounds . Nice and simple .
2)My impressions of the bloggers :
They write good English . They usually write about the activities they had on the particular day . They will try their best to make their entries more interesting so that we readers will continue reading .
3)Why/How do you form your impression of these bloggers?
After reading their post , i will understand little bit more about their life . After reading it , usually i will put my situation as the bloggers . i can also share opinion .
4)What are the similarities and differences between a blog and a journal?
The similarities are both are online diaries . The differences are a blog that can add more entertainment to it while a journal is just about they post they post they written . So , readers will prefer a blog than a journal as a blog have entertainment (eg. music , chatter box) and they will not get bored easily .
